The engine output falls as altitude increases, as does the vehicle's climbing
power. Therefore, for every additional 1000 m in height (or part), the maxi-
mum permissible towed weight must be reduced by 10%.
Payload
It is possible to calculate the approximate maximum payload from the differ-
ence between the permissible total weight and the operating weight.
The towed weight is made up of the actual weights of the loaded towing vehi-
cle and the loaded trailer.
The payload consists of the following weights.
▶
The weight of the passengers.
The weight of all items of luggage and other loads.
The weight of the roof load including the roof rack system.
The weight of the equipment that is excluded from the operating weight.
WARNING
▶
▶
Do not exceed the specified maximum permissible weights – risk of acci-
dent and damage!

Operating weight
Measurement of fuel consumption and CO emissions according to
2
This value is only a guide value and corresponds to the lowest possible operat-
ing weight without any equipment added that would also increase the weight
(e.g. emergency or spare wheel etc.). This includes 75 kg driver's weight, the
weight of the operating fluids and the on-board tool kit and a fuel tank filled to
min. 90%.

The data on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions were not available at the

The data on fuel consumption and CO2 emissions are given on the ŠKODA
websites or in the sales and technical vehicle documentation.
Operating weight
The measurement of the intra-urban cycle begins with a cold start of the en-
gine. Afterwards urban driving is simulated.

In the extra-urban driving cycle, the vehicle is accelerated and decelerated in
all gears, corresponding to daily routine driving conditions. The driving speed
varies between 0 and 120 km/h.

Note
■
Depending on the extent of the equipment, the driving style, traffic condi-
tions, weather influences and vehicle condition, consumption values can in
practice result in fuel economy figures in the use of the vehicle that differ
from the fuel consumption valueslisted on the ŠKODA websites or in the com-
mercial and technical vehicle documentation.
If required, you can find out the precise weight of your vehicle at a specialist
garage.
